ONG! These data centers should never be built in the desert. Arizona is in a water crisis. And data centers are noisy and destroy water supplies. 😩
The only thing he does is rage. He’s never worked a day in his life, so of course he isn’t tired.

I have one slight disagreement with this post.

There is at least one story bigger than that of a president instigating a plot to end U.S. democracy.

And that is the story that a president is instigating his *second* plot to end U.S. democracy.
This does nothing to promote support for the military. It’s the opposite. Both my sons served in the marines, and I’m so glad they’re out.

After the FBI denied "children were zip-tied or hit with rubber bullets" in a raid in Wilder, Idaho, the FBI said no "young" children were.

The updated statement came after KIVI-TV sent FBI photo reportedly showing 14-year-old U.S. citizen in zip ties.

They sent National Guard and Marines to "protect federal buildings" from Democrats. MEANWHILE the GOP was plotting to wreak destruction on the White House! The danger is in Washington DC and the troops are guarding the WRONG buildings!
Wear that DTS as a badge of honor. Make their lack of outrage their shame.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.
He’s not gonna solve Don Jr’s drug addiction by bombing anyone.
He’ll be bombing cruise ships next.

ICE has purchased guided missile warheads.

Guided missile warheads.

This needs to be the lead story on every news channel.

In every newspaper.

It seems like they’re preparing to go to war with America.
Cuomo is in even deeper trouble if that’s what qualifies as *hot,* but maybe it’s a menopause reference.
Trump will tear down the entire WH before this is over. He hates that building for all it is in contrast to what he is. And the colonnade is where Melania’s blood red trees stood that people ridiculed. Also, he complained about the WH from the start of his first term.
Poetry is cathartic and can sometimes express how I feel better than other forms of writing. My heart aches seeing the East Wing of the White House demolished. #Trump #EastWing #WhiteHouse
Trump flew a fighter jet (AI but symbolic) from which he dumped 💩 on Americans, yet protesters are the “they hate America” crowd. Got it, Ron, you feckless coward.
Trump destroys everything he touches. I’ve never hated another human as much as I hate Donald J Trump.
“Demolishing” is more accurate than “dismantling.”

Authoritarianism doesn't happen in a vacuum. It requires enablers. When a leader posts fantasies of monarchical rule, and his entire party looks the other way, they become complicit. The issue isn't just Trump's posts; it's the institutional decay of a party that refuses to be a check on his power.
No lies detected in that sign.
